Öz

The aim of this study is to improve the Turkish version of the Sense of Community Scale developed by Chiessi, Cicognani, & Sonn (2010). The research was conducted on 391 high school students. Results of confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that the one-dimensional sense of community model fitted well. Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient of the scale was found as .87 and three-week interval test re-test reliability coefficient was found as .84. The corrected item-total correlations ranged from .35 to .62. Overall results demonstrated that Sense of Community Scale can be used as a valid and reliable instrument in education and psychology
